ABSTRACT

Renal arteriovenous fistulas are a very rare pathology in clinical urology. They are classified as acquired and nonacquired. Acquired fistulas are categorized as iatrogenic, traumatic, spontaneous, and inflammatory. They generally present with hematuria and pain and in some cases with cardiovascular signs and symptoms. Definitive diagnosis is made through imaging studies and there are different types of treatment. Congenital renal arteriovenous fistula presenting during pregnancy is even more rare, with only seven cases reported in the biomedical literature.
